New treatment option for Sub-arachnoid Haemorrhage

Official title Levosimendan as Treatment of Aneurysmal SubArachnoid Haemorrhage

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05664191

What this study is testing

What is Levosimendan?

Levosimendan is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for sub-arachnoid haemorrhage.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
Sub-arachnoid haemorrhage (SAH) are often due to ruptured intracerebral aneurysms and are associated with an importante morbi-mortality. SAH are often complicated by delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) potentially due to cerebral vasospasm (CVS).
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
